In this preferred embodiment, the hardness includes a hardness coefficient; however, the hardness may include a rigidity coefficient or other indexes relative to the deformation resistance. In addition, in a preferred embodiment, the hardness of the shieldingstructure 500 is smaller than the hardness of the desiccatingdevice 300. In other words, both thefirst shielding layer 510 and thesecond shielding layer 520 are softer than the desiccatingdevice 300 to provide a shock-absorbing function and protect thelight emitting unit 200. Also, the shieldingstructure 500 may include a single layer structure, which is softer than the desiccatingdevice 300, for providing cushion and shielding functions to protect thelight emitting unit 200. In another embodiment, however, the hardness of the shieldingstructure 500 may be greater than the hardness of the desiccatingdevice 300 to protect thelight emitting unit 200 during transportation.
